The death of a loved one is the most traumatic experience any of us face. In this honest and sensitive book the author looks at the pain of bereavement in a down-to-earth and realistic way, drawing on other people's anticipated in the national press.The death of her own father made the author question the stages of grief pinpointed by Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. Her researches since have indicated that many people find grief a more chaotic and violent process, and this book looks at the shock, anger, guilt, powerlessness and fear of bereavement.
